Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Major-General Zachary Taylor The author of the "Life and Times of Louis Philippe," says in his preface, "The desire that is implanted in the human breast, of approaching those who have filled distinguished parts in the theatre of human action those - who have secured the highest pedestals in the pantheon of political fame - those who have acquired a memorable name by the exercise of personal authority over a large portion of their fellow-creatures, will forever give to biography a high moral influence, and an interest superior to any that general history can excite.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Taylor and Fillmore: Life of Major-General Zachary Taylor It is not our purpose, in the present sketch of the life and services of General Taylor, to give a minute history of all those important military transactions by which he has added lustre to the American name, in the several wars which have occurred since the year 1812. They form a part of the history of our country; and will serve to invigorate the national spirit for centuries to come. All men are familiar with the illustrious general's deeds of arms. We shall therefore confine ourselves to a very rapid sketch of his battles and sieges, while we dwell with more emphasis on those anecdotes and personal traits which serve to exhibit in unmistakeable traits the character of the man.

Download or read book Taylor and His Campaigns written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Taylor and His Campaigns: A Biography of Major-General Zachary Taylor The time is past for eulogizing General Taylor. The American people, the world, with an unanimity almost unparalleled, have pronounced judgment upon his deeds. From that judgment there is no appeal; to it his most devoted admirers can wish no addition. The heroic greatness of the man shines forth with a steady and refulgent light that requires no adventitious aid to increase either its brightness or its intensity. It is not the object of the present publication, therefore, to eulogize either him or his deeds, or to attempt to increase the number of his admirers, but to present for their use a clear and succinct account of what he has done. The aim is simply to exhibit the facts, not to laud them. With this View, the events of his life have been obtained from documentary or other unquestioned authority, and then set forth with particularity, indeed, as to dates and places, but with the utmost direc'tness and simplicity of style. Such a book, it was believed, would be far more acceptable at the present time than a larger and more elaborate performance.

Zachary Taylor But little is known of the General's youth, but all accounts agree in describing it as one of rare promise for a military man.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Public Service of General Zachary Taylor: An Address Known, and his Speech commemorative of his friend, Benjamin Ferguson, also is of record. His eulogy on President Zachary Taylor, however, appears to have been wholly overlooked by Lincoln's biographers and by the compilers of various editions of his works. Nicolay and Hay make no allusion to it, either In their Life of Lin coln or in their painstaking compilations of his writings and speeches.
